WHO | Quinn & Chase
WHERE | Drug Store --> Road
WHEN | Afternoon
Quinn was sick. There was no way around it; she was sick. The day after the explosion of the bridge, she had been feeling a little under the weather, but still well enough to make it into work. Thankfully, she only had to attend to paperwork, so there was no contaminating patients. Today, however, 'under the weather' was a severe understatement. She had spent the entire morning trying to break her fever, but it was clearly being stubborn. She had drank more water today than she had in the past week, tried eating saltines, and refused to crawl out from beneath her thick comforters. She was determined to break her fever. She had spent the day on her sofa, napping off and on. Sleep always made patients feel better, right? She was obviously missing something. Clearing out her medicine cabinet, Quinn found that there was little that could help her get rid of her fever. So, she forced herself into a pair of jeans and pulled a cardigan over her tank top. No, she was not trying incredibly hard to make herself presentable to the rest of the world, but with a pair of sunglasses, it's not like anyone could recognize her. The drive to the drug store was not a long one, but Quinn felt as though it took forever. So did the walk across the parking lot, even though it wasn't very large at all. She was vaguely aware of the bell chiming overhead as she entered the drug store. She was determined solely on grabbing her medicine, paying for it, and driving back home. She got the first two taken care of fairly quickly, but by the time she had exited the building, there was a new obstacle in her path. One that she hadn't quite seen until she was already face first into the man's chest. Grunting her apologies, Quinn had to hold onto him to keep from falling over. Dizziness. It kept getting worse now that she was off of her sofa. |
